Rosie's Bar and Grill

I don't even know where to begin in praise of this institution, so vital to the life of Wilton Drive and the community. Rosie's is a tropical oasis with a lively, fun atmosphere, and a great varied selection of American bar food like burgers, sandwiches, and salads, along with daily drink specials, a full bar, and a large outdoor patio for dining and socializing. The spot is a local institution, offering brunch, lunch, and dinner in a festive environment with friendly, campy service. John and Cliff (no relation to me) are the longtime owners and the longtime stewards of the place 's well-deserved reputation for taking an active part in the well-being of the community and their staff, many who have been there for decades, and some who worked there until they left this mortal coil, may their memories be a blessing to the kind of bonds of love and friendship that are forged every day at the bar and in the dining areas. Their managers Mark and Peter are longtime fixtures who know the restaurant and their customers, and Merv is a shining star of the floor and the dining room. My recommendation: the Frozen Mudslide, which I am lobbying to be called the Cliffslide 😂 You'll find: American bar food, including burgers, sandwiches, salads, and appetizers like coconut shrimp and jumbo warm pretzels. Casual, fun, and festive with a tropical, Key West vibe, that's truly a joyful refuge. A full liquor bar with daily drink specials, including great Sunday brunch specials like mimosa and Bloody Mary buckets. Indoor and a large outdoor patio with seating and an outdoor bar. "Sunday Funday Brunch" and daily drink specials. It's a fun and deservedly popular spot for locals and visitors, welcoming to the local LGBTQ+ community and allies.

Always great food and excellent service. There were six of us and we all enjoyed what we had, tons of specialty cocktails amd a full bar. They have a huge menu with lots of different type of options and also some really good desserts. Cool anv very fun atmosphere too!

Good food, atmosphere, and service. I got a burger with an extra patty. Probably one of the best burgers I have had in town. They sadly don't have lettuce wrappes burgers. The server did not know what I was talking about. They have gluten free optiona and that includes a gluten free burger bun. It was fine, nothing special.

Love Rosie’s One of our favorite neighborhood joints… Alicia, our server was beautiful, Friendly, attentive, and didn’t miss a beat. Food was amazing, but the berry cobbler for dessert…💯…

I've been a customer at Rosie's Bar & Grill for years, and there's a running joke in our house that we eat there so often it's basically our kitchen. There's a reason for that. The prices are reasonable, the food is consistently good, and the staff is simply amazing. Every visit feels welcoming, and the service always makes you feel like you're among friends rather than just another customer. One of the things I appreciate most is Rosie's connection to the Wilton Manors community. You see the same familiar faces dining there time and time again, and that says a lot about the quality of the food, the service, and the atmosphere. It's comfortable, reliable, and always an easy choice when we're deciding where to eat. If you're looking for a place with great food, friendly people, and a true neighborhood feel, Rosie's is hard to beat. It's been one of our favorites for years, and I highly recommend it.
